"We can't make key FOBS. They're irreplacable. Make sure you don't lose that one you have because otherwise you won't be able to open the trunk" (I have a convertible).

That's what the stealership tech said. I think he's full of #*&^. Is he?

it's not hard to get new key fobs at all. the hard part is the price cause they're expensive as hell.

ensign_lee

Please define expensive as hell. like $100? $200? or like $500? Thanks.

i think it's several hundred. it's the progamming cost of the key fob that sucks. you lose one it costs a ton just for that small piece.

if you've ever been in a dealership near where they keep all the keys, you'll see a computer there as well where they can program key fobs, etc.

When I had an '00 GP GTP, my key FOB broke, and I was able to find a brand new one on ebay for $25

I believe so. Why would Forddo that?

When I installed my keyless pad, I had to reprogram all the fobs with the code that came with it.
You can also create your own code.

I bought 2 extra key fobs when I bought my car, I now have 4 total, you can program up to 6, I also installed this.


punch in a 5 digit code and your doors unlock, within 3 seconds push the 5/6 button and you trunk unlocks.

No it's not impossible to replace. They aren't even that expensive.

But since you've got a 2008, get a Ford Fusion key. Just have it cut and I'm pretty sure you can program it yourself. The directions are in the manual. Look on Ebay for an uncut key, I just bought one for about $50. The Fusion keys have the FOBs built into them.

Wow that's badass.

...ok, back on topic.

So that guy was full of *#&^? Yeah, I thought so.
